The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 253 Respect Every Opponent

Oscar is actually one of the few normal people, and Li Xun doesn't have much ill will towards him. Recruiting him would be ideal, since there will be many opportunities to utilize his talents and make him shine.

But if he couldn't recruit him, he couldn't blame himself for being ruthless. After all, the struggle was a matter of life and death, and Li Xun couldn't possibly let such a useful assistant go to Xingluo.

In a small town near Soto.

Li Xun glanced at Oscar, who was fidgeting across from him, and smiled faintly: "Relax, we have no grudge against each other, do we?"

Oscar wasn't reassured by Li Xun's words; his back was already soaked with sweat. He swallowed hard and asked, "May I ask what brings you here?"

"With your current level, you should have graduated from Shrek Academy by now, right? I'd like to ask about your future plans, and if that's alright, I'd like to invite you to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School." Li Xun didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

"I have indeed graduated, but..." Oscar started to say, but then suddenly realized something, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Recalling what happened at the academy the day before yesterday, he suddenly realized that it was all too coincidental. How could it be that the official Heaven Dou organization had just approached Shrek Academy's Li Xun and he appeared right in front of him?

And it's only been a day, how are the teachers doing? Have they also been contacted like I have?

Oscar's palms were sweating. He suddenly thought of the most terrifying possibility and quickly changed the subject: "But I hadn't made up my mind before. I would naturally be happy to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"You're very smart, and I like smart people too. I hope we can work together happily in the future," Li Xun said with a smile, extending his right hand.

"Please take good care of me in the future." Oscar quickly wiped his hands and clasped them.

He knew that refusing at this moment would mean certain death, and no matter what the future held, saving his life was the most important thing.

With Oscar recruited and Shrek Academy eliminated, the internal purge of Heaven Dou Academy has come to an end, and the next step is to prepare for the next steps.

However, many things cannot be accomplished overnight, and Li Xun anticipated that he would be quite free for the next period of time: "Should I go back to Poseidon Island and take a look, and maybe even get some freebies while I'm at it?"

He remembered that after passing the Divine Trial, whenever a Soul Master reached a bottleneck, they would have a chance to obtain a Divinely Bestowed Soul Ring. Moreover, this Soul Ring would grant the Soul Master a skill they desperately needed.

Tang San's seventh spirit ring was a divinely bestowed spirit ring. It removed the skill of Martial Soul True Body, which everyone has, and also gave him an additional domain, Senluo Wanxiang.

He wasn't greedy for the domain, and he could find a way to get a 100,000-year soul ring, but this most needed skill was a real treasure.

His second spirit still has drawbacks; it can only be thrown in a straight line. He originally wanted to improve it by using Zhao Wuji's positioning and tracking skills, but he found that those spirit beast groups were at most a few ten-thousand-year-old ones. Absorbing them would be a waste, not to mention they might not even have the ability to change what can be called a rule-based spirit.

As for the eight soul rings of the first martial soul, Titan Snow Demon King, Ice Emperor Scorpion, and Azure Bull Python are all good choices.

However, Li Xun prefers the Azure Bull Python because the current form of his second martial soul is more compatible with the ice attribute.

Suddenly.

Li Xun suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flash by out of the corner of his eye, and quickly steadied himself: "How could I have forgotten her? Grandpa Dugu, wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Dugu Bo asked, puzzled.

"I spotted someone I know. Shall we go check it out together?" Li Xun said, then flew towards the spot where the figure had disappeared.

Although the person had disappeared from his sight, Li Xun could still clearly sense the other person's location through mental lock.

Perhaps sensing something amiss, the person in front suddenly increased their speed, covering a considerable distance in just a few breaths, and constantly changing positions within the alley.

Seeing that he couldn't shake off Li Xun, he plunged into the jungle outside the town.

However, those who run on the ground are no match for those who fly in the sky. After a moment, Li Xun hovered above Liu Erlong with a smile: "Senior Liu Erlong, it's been a long time. Why the rush?"

Liu Erlong paused in his escape, his expression changed several times, and his muscles tensed instantly.

She had sensed someone watching her from the beginning, which was why she kept hiding. But she never expected to be caught, and by one of the people she least wanted to see.

Li Xun, a disciple of Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, possesses considerable talent and cultivation, but this is not enough to instill awe in her. What truly makes her feel pressured is that this guy is always accompanied by a Title Douluo whenever he goes out.

"We don't seem to know each other well. Why are you blocking my way?" Liu Erlong took a deep breath and turned around. The hatred and worry on his face instantly turned into confusion.

Everyone says she has a fiery temper, but as an adult, sometimes what she shows is just for outsiders. Now that her family and relatives are gone, Liu Erlong has long since abandoned her former carefree and willful ways.

Hatred is the catalyst for her current personality transformation.

"We are not familiar with each other, but our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant School are very close, and I believe you are aware of the destruction of the Blue Lightning."

Seeing Liu Erlong pretending to be completely unaware, Li Xun chuckled and said, "I don't know what you're thinking, but since we've run into each other, I think it's best to deal with the potential threat."

The hatred of killing one's father and destroying one's clan is irreconcilable. Although Liu Erlong has been at odds with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan because of Yu Xiaogang, Li Xun does not believe that she can let go of such a deep-seated hatred.

Pressure is always the best motivation for cultivation. Zhao Wuji even experienced a breakthrough in cultivation because of his own breakthrough. How could Liu Erlong be any worse?

He didn't want to create a problem for himself, so since he had encountered it, he decided to eliminate the potential threat.

"Titan's Left Arm Soul Bone Skill, Gravity Swamp." Li Xun's left arm suddenly lit up, and a dark yellow halo suddenly appeared around Liu Erlong. The vegetation in the jungle was instantly crushed to the ground, and the trees also showed signs of bending.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Liu Erlong suddenly felt his body sink and almost fell to his knees.

"The true form of the Crimson Dragon." Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Liu Erlong's eyes flashed with cold light, and a pair of huge dragon wings grew from his back. Eight soul rings, two yellow, two purple, and four black, appeared under his feet in succession.

Liu Erlong's martial soul is a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Unlike Yu Xiaogang's mutation, her martial soul mutation is perfect. It is said that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is facing a talent shortage and has no pillar of support for its descendants, but it seems that everyone has forgotten about Liu Erlong.

The Martial Soul True Body greatly enhances a Soul Master's abilities. In this state, Liu Erlong leaped out of Li Xun's Soul Bone skill range. She then assumed a fighting stance, warily watching Dugu Bo floating in the air.

"Hey Xun, do you want me to do it?"

Dugu Bo looked at Liu Erlong with great interest. The day before yesterday, when he fought with Flander, he had not been able to test the specific level of his improved strength.

It seems that the opponent was too weak. Now that he has encountered a top-tier martial soul, although the soul power is relatively low, it should still be stronger than Flander.

Oscar stood on the giant snake that Dugu Bo had conjured, looking at Liu Erlong with a complicated expression.

Although he wasn't very familiar with the other person, the other person had nominally been his teacher, and he was reluctant to predict what would happen next.

"No need. I didn't have enough fun last time either. Now that I've finally met a worthy opponent, I want to give it a try."

Li Xun stretched his body, glanced at Oscar out of the corner of his eye, and seven spirit rings appeared one after another at his feet: one yellow, two purple, two black, and two red.

No Soul Master in this world would not want to possess a red Soul Ring. When Oscar and Liu Erlong saw Li Xun's sixth and seventh red Soul Rings, they were utterly shocked.

Liu Erlong had already foreseen her fate the moment Dugu Bo appeared. Now, seeing Li Xun facing her alone, she felt a mixture of despair and madness.

Her soul power burned wildly as she looked up at Li Xun and roared, "Boy, since you want my life, then come on!"

Seeing his opponent's reaction, Li Xun's expression gradually became serious.

He has always respected his opponents and those who are willing to fight to the death.
